create_distro_packages_list() in meta/lib/oe/distro_check.py writes no
package lists at all at the moment: the Debian list always fails, and
any failed distro then crashes the loop with UnboundLocalError.

1: Skip a distro whose package list can't be fetched.
2: ftp.debian.org no longer has dists/stable-proposed-updates. Read
   Debian updates from stable-updates instead, which is only published
   as Sources.xz.
3: Offline oe-selftest tests (oelib.distro_check) for both.

Nothing in OE-Core has used oe.distro_check since distrodata.bbclass
was removed in 2018, but the Recipe Reporting System on the layer
index still does (rrs_distros.py), to show which distros package each
recipe, and it has been broken by this.

[YOCTO #16503]

Tim Orling (3):
  lib/oe/distro_check: skip a distro whose package list can't be fetched
  lib/oe/distro_check: fetch Debian updates from stable-updates
  oeqa/selftest/oelib: add tests for oe.distro_check
